1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

BACKGROUND With the advent and advancement of autoantibodies, there has been progress in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of rheumatologic diseases. Antisynthetase syndrome (ASS) is a great example of a disease that initially was described as arthritis, myositis, interstitial lung disease, mechanic's hands, Raynaud's phenomenon, and fever in the presence of the anti-JO-1 antibody, but nowadays it presents with a different spectrum related to new antibodies. CASE REPORT We describe 4 patients with antisynthetase syndrome who were diagnosed with antibodies specific for myositis associated with different clinical findings. All patients responded to immunosuppressive therapy, and rituximab was the most used. CONCLUSIONS It is necessary to search for specific autoantibodies related to the syndrome in suspected clinical cases and in other rheumatological diseases refractory to the usual treatment.
